The PLC control system upgrade incorporates
A control cabinet for all units of the DISAMATIC Moulding System replacing the control cabinets for the Moulding Machine (DMM), the Core Setter (CSE) and the Automatic Mould Conveyor (AMC).An ultrasonic position transducer measuring the positions of the squeeze plate (PP) and the counter pressure plate (CP/SP).A modified operator panel with a colour Visual Display Unit (VDU) and a keypad for entering production data.A new CSE operator control panel (only if a CSE is installed).An upgrade of all electrical monitoring of guard gates.A renewal of all electrical operator controls.A replacement of all electronic proximity switches with new 24V DC switches.A new set of cables connecting the new control cabinet with the DMM and the CSE making it possible to place the cabinet in a new more convenient place.The PLC control is prepared for communicating with optional Computer Integrated Manufacturing (CIM) modules installed on a remote PC. From this PC data can be exchanged with other computers on a network (LAN)
